Should I quit my job as a teen?

I know that this is an obvious question considering this sub, but I wanna ask anyway and get some decent advice. I’m 18, a senior in high school, and I go to college in late August. I push carts and bag groceries at Kroger for $12.75 / hour, and I despise it. I’ve been working here for about a year and a half now, and it just sucks.

I push carts and bag groceries at Kroger for $12.75 / hour, and I despise it. I’ve been working here for about a year and a half now, and it just sucks. I have to do trash once or twice a week, meaning I take out ~40 trash cans and potentially spill trash juice on myself, and I work in the heat or cold no matter the weather. I don’t have a consistent schedule and my supervisors don’t listen to what days I request off each month, i’ve grown to dislike my coworkers because they’re all much younger and more immature than me. I’ve tried switching to a job inside but they tell me I have to be monitored for 2 weeks, and somehow I still don’t think they’ll let me switch. However I can’t find a job very easily that I actually want to work, and i’m also afraid of change because I feel comfortable there. The question is, should I quit?
